Say hi to Columbus. A dedicated cuddler and affectionate snuggle-bug looking for someone to provide him a lifetime supply of belly rubs – Yes, I said belly rubs, plenty of belly rubs.

This curious and confident boy loves to play with water. He appears wherever a tap is turned on. He can’t wait to hop in the bath when his carer is cleaning it, and doesn’t mind getting his feet wet in the shower either.

Columbus is living with other cats and enjoys a game of chase or a bit of kitty wrestling before retiring for a nap in the cat tree. He has a reputation for being a little kitten burglar, literally. He has been known to sneak around looking for “new toys” (items his carer has put down), taking anything that is small enough for him to carry, which he proudly struts away with.

Columbus is very social and enjoys spending time around his human, whether that’s relaxing on the sofa or following them around. He’s the friendliest easy going little boy with a silky short fluffy coat that will require minimal brushing. Columbus is litter trained and has also lived with dogs.

Columbus will need a home with another cat for company. He would be suited
to a family with older children.

Thank you to Hamish of Appleby Photography for the fantastic photos of Columbus.
